ʔa·kinq̓uku (fire in the Ktunaxa Language) is a dance solo choreographed to the lifecycle of a fire.  Dancing through ignition, growth, full flame, and decay, this fire rips through leaving a disaster in her wake.  How does she feel about the mess she's left behind?  We see the transformation of the earth as it regrows after she is gone.
